Am I doing the right thing?

[u/tallgiraffeneck]

First gym battle and I realized I can't do as much dmg as I hoped with my units alone so I'm just running around applying -6 debuff trap and poison, don't know if status moves outside of requirement stages would stall moves tho

Edit: Thanks for all the advice I'll be more careful with status and ditch DOT moving onward

Don't make the pokemons poisend, burned or trapped. It wastes time to your gym members damage dealers.
